coupla questions
Are you sure on the 14mm fittings, I read on here that Alex was fairly certain they were 18mm?
Also, where did you get the wheel liner vent?
Lastly, I thought I'd mention that my cooler is going in place of the stock intercooler on the drivers side of the car, so I think the 90 degree fittings are still applicable.

yeah, I bought it mostly because it was cheap
over half the price of similar options. My next choice would be Earls, which I think is actually made by setrab.

yah, fluidyne looks like the earls and setrab coolers
Mine's going on the drivers side where the stock intercooler used to be.
So what size were the metric fittings in the block? I thought they were 18 (I know they were for the 10vt when I did an oil cooler on my 4ktq), and Alex had a post on here stating they were 18 as well.. but VR_Life posted that they are 14?

Flat? Try hot!
Luke (Lordofdarings) and I are going to be putting an auto finish on my in-the-process-of-restoration 1955 GE Refridgerator I'm making into a Kegerator on Saturday. You're welcome to stop by for steaks, beer, and cigars if you want. I live in McKinney, which is about 20 minutes north of Dallas proper, in the suburbs and steer country.

Oops ! Yes you're right it is 18mm - I correct that in the post
The vent is from Home Depot (get all my best mod material there or OSH). It's a roofing vent cover painted black, comes with wire mesh backing, look in the roofing, gutter section.

well some of that too
NOTHING going on in this town from walking around tonight. Almost totally dead.
I'm going to check out Fort Worth tomorrow. If I've got time I'd love to stop by and check out the kegerator. If I show up late enough, the beer might even be cold!
